With Season 2 over, Davis talks a bit more about what to expect when the series returns next year

TEEN WOLF ended season 2 with another slam-bang ending. Many things were resolved, but it also set the stage for Season 3.

Some of the more significant things we learned:

1) The villains for part of Season 2 will be an “Alpha Pack” made of some pretty badass werewolves.

2) Gerard (Michael Hogan) has been dying of cancer and was hoping to become a werewolf himself to live on – but he was tricked by Scott (Tyler Posey), so even though he’s still alive after getting the curse, what exactly that means for him is a mystery.

3) Jackson (Colton Haynes) is no longer a Kanima, but a full-fledged werewolf

4) Scott and Allison (Crystal Reed) break up.

Shortly after the Season 2 finale, ASSIGNMENT X caught up with Jeff Davis to get a taste of what he has planned for TEEN WOLF Season 3 and to reflect on Season 2 in this exclusive interview.

ASSIGNMENT X: Can you talk about the Jackson arc – it feels like his was the story about a horrible person becoming a real boy, or in this case a real werewolf.

JEFF DAVIS: It’s a transformation of both body and soul for him – a redemption story. I personally love redemption stories especially of villains becoming good guys and people given a new chance. I think it’s a nice character arc from him, seeing him go from villainous bad guy character to someone worthy of redemption and it’s done with love.

AX: What has happened to Gerard? Will he be back?

DAVIS: He’s been put in a very bad position. We have a certain plan, if we can grab him back for Season 3. He’s still alive. It will be an interesting revelation where he lands. We may have not seen last of Gerard.

AX: What does the Alpha Pack mean for our characters?

DAVIS: It’s something we’ve been leading up to for a long time. Part of their reason to coming to Beacon Hills is a larger mystery of first half of Season Three. It’s a bit of a Democracy, There is a definite leader and the leader of it is the one who brought all the Alphas together.

AX: Now that Lydia (Holland Roden) knows that there’s supernatural happenings and that her boyfriend is now a werewolf, how will that change her going into Season Three?

DAVIS: It’s been sort of a gradual process for Lydia, being clued into the supernatural side of Beacon Hills. She’s had so much craziness within her life – she’s more mentally prepared for it than she thinks. She will have a big arc in Season 3 as well. Keying her into the supernatural of Beacon Hills was very important this season so we can have more fun with her next season.

AX: Will Stiles’ dad ever discover that the town has werewolves?

DAVIS: We are definitely exploring that. At a certain point, it will become too many occurrences happening to him and he’ll begin to question things. We’re tossing it around.

I wannna see happen more scenes between Stiles and Derek, just something between the two of them, but not only funny stuff (cause we already know the two is hilarious together) but emotional, sad, heartbreaking scenes between them. They have much in common, both lost someone from their family and they both are poor broken souls and they both DO realize it. That’s what i want to see :P. Great interview, i’m SO glad you asked about Ms Morell!

Yes i totally agree with you. That is what i want to see too between derek and stiles because they are mostly linked by their vulnerabilities and all the scenes we’ve seen of them so far it is usually to balance the horror events with something humorous.

I say that, in Season 3 of Teen Wolf; That Jackson doesn’t only discover that he already had the werewolf gene in his DNA, also not only discovering that he was the baby in the the Hale fire. But also that he is a direct descendant of a legendary Alpha Werewolf, who’s Alpha powers has ascended upon him directly following his supernatural awakening!

It would be nice to see Scott with a ride. I think a motorcycle would fit him. Trade in his bike for one with a motor, as mentioned by Isaac in Season 2. Poor guy is the only one without a vehicle of his own.
